Destination Unknown Part 4: Christmas Edition

 

Our wonderful Disney Christmas Tree and Stockings.

After a long layover in Schiphol Airport we were finally on our way to England. Due to the covid-19 we would have to stay in quarantine for 14 days. In typical British fashion it was raining when we got here. An unwanted change from the wonderful weather in Croatia. 

As we had to stay in quarantine in our apartment there was not much we could do. Mjau, we mostly watched Disney and Muppet Christmas movies and enjoyed homemade gingerbread and special hot chocolate.

Our home made gingerbread ornaments.

Stella Lou and Gelatoni ornaments.

Fortunately our second butler was still allowed to go outside so we got food and equipment for art and crafts. Mjau, so much fun making our own christmas ornaments. We made our own Disney Character Gingerbread Ornaments. We also made some Mini Disney Plushies for last minute stocking stuffing.

The Mini Disney Plushies we made all by ourselves.

Cookies and Milk for Santa.

Our butlers made us go to bed early on the 23rd so after leaving out gingerbread cookies and special milk, our butlers tucked us in. Mjau, so difficult to fall asleep amidst all the excitement. We could hear some thumping footsteps above us and rustling sounds coming from the living room. It must have been Santa! We were so excited! We were still awake when our butler got to bed and we had to pretend to be asleep. We do not think they noticed our eyes were open.

Mjau, Santa enjoyed our sacrificial offering. We got many presents!

On the morning of the 24th we rushed to the living room. The cookies hade been eaten and the milk had been drunk! Under the Christmas Tree was a heap of presents and our stockings were filled to the brim.

Mjau, our stockings are filled with presents.

So many gifts under the tree!

Before opening the presents we had to watch the 12 days of Christmas Disney Song Along special. Mjau, so difficult to concentrate with all the gift waiting to be opened.

Christmas Clutter

First we took turns opening the gifts under the tree. Afterwards we took turns with our stockings. Mjau, so many wonderful gifts. We got several Disney Legos and other Legos as well. The biggest Lego set we got was The Little Mermaid. We also got smaller Cinderella, Frozen and Iron Man Legos. We also got a festive Lego gingerbread house and Santa and Mrs Santa Claus. 

Es also got two baby bunny bunnies from Sylvanian Families. Am's babies also got two kittens from Sylvanian Families so that they can play together.

We also got our very own My Adventure Book. Hopefully we will be able to go on more adventures in 2021.

Mjau, wonderful new Legos.

Our Lego Gingerbread House.

Our Christmas Minnie Ears and Adventure Book.

We also got new Christmas Minnie Ears. Si even got bridal Minnie Ears for when she and DC can finally have their wedding. We got amazing custom made Disney and Muppet costumes. We all got our favourite characters: Figment, Sam the Eagle, Kermit, Big Al and a double dose of Heimlich. We like the costumes so much that we have not taken them off since Christmas. Our butlers would not allow us to wear them to bed, so we slept under the christmas tree for a couple of nights. Mjau, now we take the costumes off just before bed and put them on immediately after we wake up.

Our custom made Disney Costumes.

We also got a pocket version of the Labyrinth game which is fun to play. However, not as fun as our own Hugo Expressen game.

In the stockings we also got delicious chocolates and our custom made Disney mini plushies. Mjau, we had to pay our butlers their annual salary with our chocolates. Mjau, they went around the room with their collection plate, like common beggars.

Si and her Dragon Egg.

Si also got a Dragon Egg. It had to be submerged in water. Mjau, after two days the egg started hatching and we could see the baby dragon. Just a couple more days in water and the dragon almost doubled in size.

The egg is starting to hatch.

Mjau, the dragon egg has hatched.

A baby dragon is born.

The siamese cat boys also got Disney 3D puzzles: Chip, Donald and Mickey. They also got mini cars from Pixar's Cars and some silicone cake molds. Mjau, they also got some Legos.

Legos, 3D puzzles and lots of other toys.

Grandpa, Farmor, Farfar and the Aunties also got some delicious Baileys liquor and Cherry liquor from Croatia. 

We played all day with our new toys while listening to Disney Christmas Music. Our butlers devoured their bodyweight in chocolate and were experimenting in mixing different liquid magic drinks. On the 25th we had some homemade pumpkin pie and stuffing falafels with cranberry sauce and chicken. Mjau, we could not find turkey from the store. Our post-Christmas blues had started to set in. Mjau, our butlers could prevent this by buying us some more Christmas presents so we could celebrate Christmas on the 25th as well. Mjau, we wish Christmas would last longer. Christmas always seems to last longer when spent in Disney.

Playtime with our new fancy toys.

After Christmas Manchester set stricter restrictions so now we are pretty much stuck in the apartment. We only got a couple days of freedom between our quarantine and the new restrictions. The New Year's Eve celebrations were almost nonexistent due to the restrictions. We could hear and see some fireworks going off in the distance. We just watched the Disney fireworks from YouTube instead. We read our fortunes in online fortune cookies and tarot cards. Mjau, we will have to see where life and 2021 takes us next.
